What's worse than being in charge of one CCU? (Odd Musings)

Why, being in charge of 2, of course! Last time I was in charge, we had the second CCU open due to high census, which involved a lot of crap. Needing staff, needing to get patients moved, needing to not need the extra staff I called in because I got the patients moved.

My sister is here in town for the week. We went up to the city yesterday, and went to the Winchester Mystery House today. I LOVE that house! I've been there 3 times now, and this time there were actually a few more rooms open, which was a really lovely surprise. It's my dream to actually have a really wild and crazy house. Not one that takes up a few acres ... just one that's highly unique and eccentric.

Tonight Dave and I went to Subway to get a little sandwich, and when we walked in, the guy behind the counter was on the phone, but glanced at us. It took us all of 20 seconds to figure out what we wanted, but the guy stayed on the phone. We stared heavily at the guy, but he never looked at us again. Finally Dave said, "Well, see ya later buddy" and we walked out... only then did he look at us again. We looked in the window as we walked by and he was off the phone. What an idiot.

Re: Subway, Caryn and I had a similar experience on the first day of our trip. Guess we forgot to write about it. We sat at a table in a restaurant for 15 minutes with NO MENUS. Meanwhile, the lone waitress was chatting with the only other customer three tables down. I'll admit it was the customer who was really monopolizing the conversation, and it wouldn't have been *trivial* for the waitress to cut it off, but that's her damn job! We used their bathrooms (which was really why we stopped) and hightailed it.
